Descrizione Description
“Quarter Tone Blues” is where the Mississippi Delta meets the ancient sounds of the Middle East. A gritty electric guitar fights to keep the song rooted in blues-rock, while the oud answers with sliding quarter tones and Arabic ornaments. Between them, a warm tenor sax turns the tension into something melancholic, romantic and almost dreamlike.
At its core, the song is about discovering that sorrow speaks many musical languages. Sometimes the most powerful note is not the one we already know, but the one hidden between two worlds.
